Re: [QE-users] band convergece problem in charged system

Dear Thomas, Thanks for your reply. I tried the neutral system before the charge one, which is simulated with Martyna-Tuckerman correction. The good thing is the band gap could achieve convergence in respect of super cell size. And I found that there is band gap between band 104 and 105

Dear Yang, I have no clue how the Martyna-Tuckerman correction works but usually one has problems with systems having such a large total charge since the total cell needs to be neutral. Some terms are in fact calculated for a charge neutral system resulting in a total potential which has a

Dear QE users: I try to use QE-6.4.1 to simulate as single molecule. Thesystem isbuilt in large super cell, and total_charge=-4is added to input fileleading tocharged system. When I do the convergence test in term of the super cellsize (20 Angs - 30 Angs), the variationfor total energy is
